1/3 is 33%, so according to the stats that you're using it might be
the time to stop caring about that version.

I don't remember Firebug ever crashing when I used older versions. You
might try to start with a new profile.

Ok, here's your real problem.
The rest of the world expects improvements when they do any upgrade,
and so they prefer to move forward and report if there's any new
problem because the reality is that usually there are no new problems
and instead new features and bug fixes.

As other people have pointed out, the development of Firebug is tested
on Aurora, and you're readying too much in my words
